DVD REVIEW: Paws and Rewind…

Oct 21, 2011

Cartoon Network first aired the 1 hour premier episode of Thundercats in the US on July 29, 2011, and continues to air every Friday at 8:30/7:30 C. A reboot to the popular 80′s cartoon of the same name, Thundercats (2011) is an attempt to mix the visual appeal of Japanese anime with a darker, more contemporary story. The 2-Disc DVD set released this...

Review: Griff the Invisible

Review: Griff the Invisible

Aug 18, 2011

I recently attended an early screening of Griff the Invisible, a quirky romantic comedy/drama written by first-time Australian director Leon Ford. I didn’t know what to expect from Griff. The trailer promised a light-hearted story about a delusional wannabe superhero that somehow stumbles into the “ultimate superpower” … love. And to that promise, it...

REVIEW: Attack the Block

REVIEW: Attack the Block

Jul 29, 2011

I loved this movie. Or … I assumed I would. It had all the makings of a movie I’d usually have shouted about from mountain tops, or at least drunken Tweeted about several times before dragging multiple friends to subsequent showings because they “had to see it.” Please don’t mistake these statements to mean that I didn’t...

I’m not usually one to post timely news stories. Perhaps I’m lazy … perhaps I just take joy in keeping juicy tidbits of knowledge to myself. But I couldn’t not tell someone about this, and I’m pretty sure my Twitter followers and Facebook friends are sick of my updates. See this sick console? I want it. Sure I’m late to the game...

Tim Burton: Museum Macabre

Jul 8, 2011

  Spending the afternoon inside the mind of Tim Burton is like being endlessly pursued by a frenzied monster and waking up just as it’s about to attack, finally realizing it was just a dream. It’s scary, it’s twisted, and it’s completely exhilarating. Luckily, since we can’t all be Helena Bonham Carter, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art...

Google+ Organizes Your Epic Bros

Jun 28, 2011

The web has recently been abuzz with news on Google+, a project that Google promises will revolutionize our social networking habits. Considering how big our online social lives are to us these days, not to mention the amount of competition, this will be a big undertaking. What is it promising exactly? The short answer is it will be working hard to one-up and...

Austin Wintory on Journey’s Musical Soundscape

Austin Wintory on Journey’s Musical Soundscape

Jun 28, 2011

Austin Wintory is, for all intents and purposes, the very definition of a ‘Jack of All Trades’. The man lives and breathes music, and if a surgeon were to explore his inner workings, he’d find scales and notes to be the sinew that holds his body together. Wintory’s musical accomplishments span films, commercials and games, and even saw...

Wow. Just… wow. By now most of you have heard about the very sad news concerning Jackass star Ryan Dunn. What you may not know, and what was just brought to my attention, was that a “socal mapping” site called ZoomAtlus has taken the opportunity to cash in on this loss by trying to garner some attention for themselves. Yeah, I’d never...
